I realize that Cosby is a liberal, but he spoke up against the black urban “culture” and got raked over the coals at that time. How dare he leave the lockstep plantation. But it is the way the hard left works. Any deviation from the party line must be punished. “I disagree with you on one little thing, therefore, I must hate you, I must destroy you, I must kill you.” There is no forgiveness or rehabilitation from deviating from the party line. The hard left holds grudges, and will not let go of grudges. They have a record of parading out old accusations, even fabricating accusations allegedly from decades ago, even against their own. It is the same modus operandii as Stalin and Mao. So the left will eat their own. Some wake up and abandon the left, such as David Horowitz. Others get caught up in what becomes a circular firing squad.
Keep in mind my comments are based on the assumption that Cosby is innocent. I am not being an armchair barrister.
